Round one of Pennsylvania hunting licenses and antlerless deer licenses was a bit bumpy.
So round one of Pennsylvania hunting licenses and antlerless deer licenses was a bit bumpy.“As executive director of the Pennsylvania Game Commission, I’m glad you got your 2023-24 hunting license and your antlerless deer license for the upcoming seasons last week,” Burhans said in a mass email July 6.
“The launch of today’s online antlerless deer license sales was unacceptable,” state Senate Game and Fisheries Committee Chairman Greg Rothman of Mechanicsburg said June 26. WMU 2C, for example, has the highest allocation with 88,000 tags, while WMU 3A has the lowest at 21,000.Tags are sold in rounds of sales, when hunters can buy one per round, or the equivalent of one per round. Ultimately, one hunter can hold no more than six antlerless licenses.
At 8 a.m. June 26, tens of thousands of hunters tried to buy their licenses online, creating a logjam. At 8:30 a.m., I logged on to the system and was told there were 67,000 people in line ahead of me.Likewise, long lines of hunters formed at retail stores. How many hunters are out there wanting these tags? Will they all rush to buy at 8 a.m. July 24, like they did June 26?The honest answer is: we don’t know.What the Game Commission knows is there was inadequate cloud server space to handle the crush of hunters logging on June 26, which led to a widespread slowdown. That slowdown prevented some issuing agents from selling licenses for up to two hours.However, increasing the cloud server space doesn’t entirely alleviate the waiting issue.
“The options for improving the speed of the existing system are more limited compared to what could result from building a new system. The answer would seem to be “yes” for some units. But without any history with this system, it’s hard to tell which ones will see high demand, and which ones won’t.
